Fun day with Basser and his buddy, Chris Aubet. Day started slow with Mondays front having shut things down but the afternoon presented lots of shots. As some of you know I s%*k flyfishing from a boat. Had a chance to work on my line management and danceing with the "motion of the ocean" skills. Also had an education by observation of some fine boat handling skills. No run and gun here, just ease up on the pod and set one of the old farts up for an easy cast. Chris, I think, was a bit irritated with our muffed shots. With the opps. we had we should have boated more fish. Big thanks to John and Chris for a great day.

...and all in sight of terra firma...what's not to like !?
I noticed that there was a tubular "keep-the-client-in-the-boat" device up front...
Any pics to post and/or feed back for the prop-wash section?!

Pete, the client keeper worked well to keep this high stepper from goin overboard, though it could of been a little higher. I do have a bruise on my thigh.

Dave, we were out there Tuesday. Things were dead in the am as a result of the front but as the day warmed activety picked up. By the way, that was my first tunoid of any kind though I did have a brief hookup with a bluefin from the beach at the light last year.

Chris, these were the small varity but pretty damn powerful. The first 2 I hooked broke off the 20# tippet easily when I had line get wrapped on the reel handle.
